baltimoreRebel Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Feel free to post this in another thread if this doesn't warrant its own. Wasn't sure where to put it. I've had this injury before and it sucks. He will probably be dealing with it all year. Very annoying thing to deal with. I didn't feel right for about 9 months. I'm also not a professional athlete so who knows. I'd like to see us keep him out until he's 100% ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berlin calling Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 something was bound to happen i guess. so i just assume no J. Smith and no 1st round pick for the first 4 weeks. shouldn't hinder this team reaching the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danand Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 From what I know, it will be not painful but like running with a small stone in your shoe. Annoying as hell but shouldn't be a real issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paraven Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 idk anytime you have screws inserted in your foot, its going to take a long time to adjust to it. Im preparing for minimal contributions from Hurst this season. That makes 2 first round picks that will be on the bench this year...

DreamKid Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 That sucks. Oh well, all we can do is hope Mark Andrews steps up and that Hayden eventually returns healthy and good to go. Hurst not being able to build chemistry with Flacco early is a disappointment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drd23 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I'd be very surprised if he's back in 3-4 weeks and even if he somehow is, he won't be anywhere near 100% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RavensfanRD Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Just when I thought he and Flacco were ready to spin up. Thanks a lot, health! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wackywabbit Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Sucks. Despite him never taking a regular season snap, this already makes us a weaker team for the first month. Given the backups, this is almost as big as Jimmy's suspension. And of course we have the road Bengals and Steelers games in the first month. Going to have to hope to steal one and come out 3-1, and hope he gets right for later in the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamondbull424 Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 This is good. Hurst’s strengths are his crazy hands. So when he comes back regardless of playing speed, he should be able to make some legit contested grabs. This now gives us an opportunity to see what we have in Mark Andrews as a rookie. He wasn’t going to get any shine with Hurst there and it would’ve limited his development with all the other TEs. Now he has 2 weeks to see plenty of game action before the season, plus we have other TEs with significant experience. Sucks for Hurst’s chances to prove statistically that he was a better pick than other options (though he wasn’t), but I’m not too worried about him.

He didn't look that great running routes last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
